I have read alot of posts about sentence reduction? Are mandatory min. drug charges eligible for these and how do you get it started. PD never brought out questions that we(family) believe would have reduced the actual charges brought to lesser charges.

Is this state or federal you are referring too ? Is he in a fed institute or state ?

State time- NC

I will look into that for you and see what I can come up with unless someone else here already knows. I read most of your situation on another thread and hopefully we can get to your questions here on this forum. Let me see what I can come up with and I will post it or pm you.

Minimum mandatories are exactly that- they are not eligble for one day of good time. parole or sentence reduction. They have been deemed legal and just by the supreme court. The only time there might be an exception was that a judge ran his sentences consecutively (or stacked) and he did not have any priors. There was a supreme court decision about a year ago that found this unlawful. My husband is doing time under a minimum mandatory law and I've done quite a bit of research on it. Sucks doesn't it?
